BackCheck has helped countless companies and organizations with their pre-employment screening needs thus helping them improve their talent pool and hiring efficiencies. Below is a collection of case studies that describe how choosing BackCheck proved to be the beginning of a good decision.
In order to reduce costs in their pre-employment screening process, a prominent Canadian bank coordinated its background checking with BackCheck.
Averaging 9000 hiring candidates per year, the bank quickly was able to consolidate nation wide hiring through a single agent and cut back on inefficiencies. The organization was quick to recognize that nearly five percent of the hiring candidates were untruthful in their educational claims, and that the number rose during economic crisis.
BackCheck’s analytical format also revealed that over one third of job applicants had an unsavory work history, and that by the end of 2008, the number was on the rise by a rate of 22%. The increased accuracy coupled with speedy completion of files resulted in firm savings and better hires, lending itself to the stability of this banking institution.

A nationwide logistics organization with 4000 hiring candidates per year was in need of consolidating their applicant screening system. In an industry riddled with high turnover and product loss, the implementation of a streamlined background checking process is a necessity.
The high cost of an inadequate hiring process scattered throughout the branches was holding the company back. With six percent of the hiring pool hiding criminal records, resources were being misplaced even before the results of criminal histories were known.
BackCheck’s 24 hour turn-around time promise to put an end to this inefficiency, allowing for the consolidation of criminal record checks into a single medium. Hiring managers further gained the ability to track the quick progress online. During 2008, the percentage of candidates with poor employment histories rose by 42%. The dissemination of this information greatly helped to reduce employee attrition rates during already tough economic times.

One of only three telecommunications companies operating throughout Canada sought out BackCheck’s pre-employment screening services to aid in their cost reduction strategy.
As a multi-provincial organization, the cost of a fragmented in-house pre-employment screening process was a mounting problem. The inability of a central hiring manager to audit the progress of the 6000 yearly candidate files lent itself to inefficiency and waste.
BackCheck’s pre-employment screening solution brought solidarity, speed, and accuracy to the process. Working within the client’s human resource guidelines, ineligible candidates were quickly eliminated from the hiring pool allowing the hiring managers to focus more attention on their potential candidates.

Since working with BackCheck, the pre-employment screening process has greatly improved. With improved turn around times and information accuracy, this utilities provider has saved thousands by avoiding potential hiring errors.
